QJ Previews: Project Wiki

Yes, yes, it looks a whole lot like um, what’s the name of that little game Nintendo makes? Oh yeah, it looks a lot like Windwaker… a whole lot. Now that that’s out of the way we can concentrate more on what makes Project Wiki so unique and intriguing, and one of my most anticipated MMO’s.

       

Find out all there is to know about this charming and promising MMO after the jump!

Yes, yes, it looks a whole lot like um, what’s the name of that little game Nintendo makes? Oh yeah, it looks a lot like Windwaker… a whole lot. Now that that’s out of the way we can concentrate more on what makes Project Wiki so unique and intriguing, and one of my most anticipated MMO’s.

         

Firstly, and somewhat ironically is the simple fact that it looks so very different from everything else on the market, or that’s coming for a long time. No muscular orcs or devilish looking creatures here, just happy, inviting looking characters and a charming fairy tale world to explore.

Project Wiki takes place in a land where the seven Crystals of Time have been stolen, anyone possessing these mythical artifacts has the ability to travel through time and space, and alter history to their liking (probably not a good thing). You’ll have to band with a group of fellow adventurers and embark on an epic quest to save Project Wiki and rescue time itself!

Project Wiki promises a massive game world with ten distinct civilisations each with a wealth of cultural heritage, unique myths and amazing legends. Players will get to choose from three different races, beasts, humans and fairies, each race possessing unique classes.

You’ll also be able to encounter NPC’s who react adaptively to unique individuals, they might send you off on  one quest and send the next person that talks to them off on a totally different one just because they are who they are.  Customising your character by establishing his or her hair color, and hair style, attitude and facial expressions will have an impact on your gameplay styles, the missions and quests you’ll embark upon and as mentioned even your interactions with others.

   
Look at the giant pandas! They look so cuuute and happy!

I’m personally looking forward to Project Wiki and I’m hoping it’ll be more of a feel good, relaxing, casual MMO, maybe one of the few that doesn’t actually become hard work the more time you invest in it. (I’m lookin’ at you EverQuest 2) Don’t you just hate it when you suddenly realise you’ve gone from having fun in an MMO to suddenly grinding just to reach the next level? Seriously, and to think I pay for that privilege!? *end rant*

So what do you guys think of project Wiki so far? A breath of fresh air, or derivative?
